Abstract

Processing local food sago is a hereditary activity carried out by some people in the East Kolaka Regency. This activity has been able to provide additional income for the community, so that it has an impact on increasing household income. However, differences in technology and the ability to provide raw materials from each processor ultimately affect differences in the income that can be generated. This research aims to determine the welfare of the local sago food processing community in East Kolaka Regency based on the level of per capita income and income distribution. This research was conducted in August 2023. Location determination was carried out purposively with 68 respondents. The data analysis used is per capita income analysis, which is formulated from the income analysis equation and Gini ratio analysis. The results of the research show that the local sago food processing community in East Kolaka Regency is in the high welfare category, where the per capita income generated by respondents is IDR 7,440,136.-. Gini ratio analysis shows that the Gini ratio coefficient value is 0.58, which means that the level of income inequality in local sago food processing communities in the East Kolaka Regency is in the high category.

Abstract

The expansion of oil palm plantation areas has also created a new zoning system that restricts village communities' freedom to reach areas once used as farming and livestock locations. This study aims to analyze income and expenditure, analyze the structure of household livelihoods, and determine the strategies for fulfilling household livelihoods of beef cattle farmers in oil palm plantation areas in Watubangga, Kolaka. Respondents in this study amounted to 35 farmer households determined by a simple random sampling method. The primary and secondary data were used. Data analysis used in this research includes income, saving capacity, and descriptive analysis. The results showed that the average income of cattle farmer households in Watubangga Subdistrict, Kolaka Regency, was IDR 18,918,750 per month, with an average household expenditure of IDR 6,506,250 per month and an average saving capacity of IDR 12,412,500 per month. Household livelihood strategies applied in Watubangga, Kolaka, are spatial engineering (migration), farming livelihood engineering, and dual livelihood patterns. This study can be followed up with a study on the welfare level of the farming community to find out how the structure and livelihood strategies fulfill the welfare of the farming community.
